## Summary

The Lancashire County Council is inviting tenders for the project titled "LPS CAS - Earthworks, Cuerden Strategic Site - RFQ 15197664" focused on earthworks at the Cuerden Strategic Site in the North West of England. This procurement, classified under the construction industry with a CPV code for building demolition and earthmoving work, has an estimated value of £3,800,000. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the tender period is set to conclude on 1st June 2018, with the contract period scheduled to start on 22nd June 2018 and end on 11th January 2019. The Council is currently assessing the project's direction following changes indicating a potential pause in tendering activities due to the withdrawal of Ikea as the anchor tenant.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in construction and earthmoving services. Businesses equipped to manage large-scale earthworks, demolition, or similar projects will find this contract particularly appealing. Interested firms should be prepared to demonstrate their capacity for timely delivery and adherence to the expected quality standards, as the procurement process is structured to favour competitive and capable service providers that can fulfil the Council's requirements effectively.

## Notice

Earthworks, Cuerden Strategic Site Additional information: As you may be aware, Ikea, the intended anchor tenant for the Cuerden retail development, has advised that it wishes to withdraw its plans to open a store on the site. Whilst the Council remains focussed on the site development it is considered appropriate to pause certain works / tender exercises whilst discussions take place. On this basis we are pausing this tender exercise for a short period but will confirm our position at the very earliest opportunity. Please be assured that should this exercise continue we will, of course, extend the deadline for tender submissions as appropriate. Please note that the contract start and end dates are likely to change.
